Layton Kor’s Fundraiser is back in action!

Thanks to Big City Mountaineers, who has stepped in to be a nonprofit partner, laytonkorclimbing.com can now accept online donations again.
Layton Kor, perhaps the most legendary climber of his generation, is awaiting a kidney transplant and needs help with the burden of medical expense. A group of climbers and companies has banded together to donate climbing days and gear for a multi-month raffle effort, to encourage donations.
Everyone who donates $25 can be put into a raffle to climb with Tommy Caldwell, Jimmie Dunn, Steph Davis, Conrad Anker or Eric Horst. Everyone who donates during each calendar month of the fundraiser is also eligible for a huge gear giveaway package every month.
The January 1 gear giveaway, for everyone who donates in this month of December, is this great package:
MSR Skinny Too tent
Metolius six-pack of FS mini carabiners
Mammut 5-pack of shoulder length dyneema slings
Metolius Comp chalkbag and Element Key Lock Carabiner
4 boxes any Clif product
1 prAna outfit (top and bottom, your choice)
1 pair Five Ten shoes (your choice)
prAna yoga mat
Sender Films DVD (your choice)
3-pack Backcountry.com Stainless Steel coffee tumblers
Yes, all of it!! The gear giveaways will take place every month until we reach a donation goal and pass out the climbing days next spring.
Please come to laytonkorclimbing.com, donate, and spread the word to everyone you know about this fundraiser to help an important member of our community, who has provided inspiration to so many of us.
